<DIV>I got to meat Maurice Jones Drew a couple of weeks ago at a party that the car dealership I work for had celebrating new ownership. He's going to be a spokesman for us. Super nice guy, was very accomodating to autograph seekers, and came back to the dealership the next day to sign an autograph for a kid with Downs Syndrome that works for my wife...</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>He truly doesn't seem to be one ofthe "thug" types that are so prevelent in the NFL these days...</DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>And It's a lot of fun to watch him run the ball!!!</DIV>

Jax area is very nice. You have a few things I think are cool:

-Murray Hill Theatre. My band recorded an album there a few years ago, and actually slept there. A mouse got into some of the food we brought. Not a very comfy place to sleep. Record sucks in hindsight but we were, what, in 10th grade? :) Played a few shows there, and really want to go to the swing dance lessons.

-Providence school? Not sure of exact name. They have a forensics (debate) team that I got to know this past year as president of my school's debate team. They sent some people, as did my team, to Houston, Texas, for a national tournament. There, one of the girls on the Jax team told me she liked me. A week later she informs me over email that she has a boyfriend and it won't work out.

Oh well, I'm a while away, in Gainesville Fl. Still love Jax.

Yep, Jax is cool.
Was very cool the day I left NAS Cecil Field (VA-87 and VA-82) on my way back to Texas :)
(I'm allowed to say that, I was born in St. Augustine..)
